"he and wife Evelyn were married, and that the date of that marriage was May 7, 1941."

Fig 1: shows Fats’ mom, Rosa (left), and Fats’ wife, Evelyn (right), with the man himself in the middle. This photo was taken in 1944, when Fats was about 31. Fats always boasted of Evelyn’s great beauty, and for once it appears he did not exaggerate. She was also known as quite a party girl. Evelyn herself told me not long before her death that she enjoyed Fats’ company, because he knew how to show a girl a good time.

Fig 5: shows Fats and Evelyn during a family vacation. Doug Corwin says this photo was taken in Bishop, Calif., in 1945. Here’s the caption information he provided: “Rudy and Evelyn (holding Doug) took Grandma Wanderone and Evelyn’s mother to visit Bernie and Jerry in Bishop, California. They were surprised to find Jerrie pregnant. Jerrie and Bernie moved to Soap Lake, Washington, shortly before her death. Jerrie took this picture in 1945.”
